This sample Value Stream Map is based on a real
scenario in a large multi-national business.
The Current State Map shows the process of raising a purchase
requisition, obtaining the necessary approvals from departmental heads
and then the delays caused by the quotation process.
The Future State Map shows the revised process where requisitions and
purchase orders are raised and approved electronically.
The items are purchased from an approved supplier, where prices have
been agreed, in advance.
